WhiteTigerShiro:Ah Shamus, you're more devious than the Announcer. Promising us that someone will die in this comic, then killing some characters who never even had camera time in the first place. You cur!

They had camera time, they where in one panel. He even linked the panel.

Well, Metrocops are actually still fully human. That's why they get shitty armor and weapons. You rise in rank in the Combine as they alter you more and more. But yeah, Metro is surprisingly savvy for your average mook.

Abedeus:I have no idea in which country "muy bueno" is acceptable. "Muy bien" is correct, methinks. He could always say "Muy bonito", but that would be a bit weird.

Also, we don't take kindly to folks who use 3 words and call it a "post".

"Muy bien" can be used, I grant you that, but it would translate as "very well", not "very good". Native Spanish speakers everywhere can use "muy bueno", generally because they're eliding the subject -- and the verb estar, which carries about zero content. "[Este episodio está] muy bueno". It's somewhat colloquial, but not even the RAE could fault that construction -- again, outside of there being no punctuation.

As for the post being too short, I cannot defend it. It is short, indeed. But please don't say "we don't take kindly to folks who", it seems like you're about to dispense some frontier justice on the guy :P

My first instinct would indeed be to use ser in that expression, but most likely the correct verb in that phrase would be indeed estar. You see, it depends on whether the strip can be considered intrinsically,fundamentally good or whether it is an accidental property of how Shamus managed to write it, lay it out, etc. Please check a page here for uses of ser and estar. Cases can be argued for both, though...
